Flyers are tanking really well.
Holy shit, 3 of the 4 on Rittich were bad. All of them were leaky and just gross. I thought MAF had the softy of the night locked up, but there was one so bad on Rittich that Darren Pang was puzzled and couldn’t believe it. He was just looking for something else that caused that to go in because it was such a bad one on the goalie.What is with some of these teams afraid they’re gonna miss the playoffs?
Nashville has to play Saros two days in a row? And then they have to yank him and Rittich allows 4 on 6 shots lol.
By the way, Rittich is a shit, chump goalIe. Where’s the one poster trying to get people to eat crow for saying Rittich was bad? Hynes don’t even wanna play him because he sucks so much.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Saros is back in for the next period. I’m guessing he won’t be though.
I haven’t watched a second of that game. I’m watching the Sharks/Wild. I was just looking at the app and it was 3-1 and then I check it 20 minutes later and it’s 8-2.
The Flyers roster went from solid to disarray. Their young players all regressed and they have some ugly deals. If the Flyers come away from this draft with a guy who doesn’t play in the NHL for two years and doesn’t become an impact player for two more they might not be much better even then.They remind me a lot of what we were like back around the 2015, 2016 days but without having a Cory behind them. They’re real real bad. Them losing out wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest

I would think so , I don’t know their prospects that well but from what I know they have nothing really amazing coming up . Depends on what they do this off-season but maybe they hold tight and suck all next year for Bedard .They're strong Bedard contenders next year
Prime candidates for either of the 2 possible generationals next year. We picked the wrong year to suck (though we could suck again, just not as likely).The Flyers roster went from solid to disarray.

Meh. Look at EDM. Look at PHI with Lindros. One or two great players can’t save a bad team. PHI will need better management to turn it around.Prime candidates for either of the 2 possible generationals next year. We picked the wrong year to suck (though we could suck again, just not as likely).

Isn't that ALWAYS the case with this franchise these days?
We missed out on McDavid and ended with Pavel f'n Zacha for god's sake.
That's true.I mean we got Jack and between Matthews and Bedard that’s the best 1OA
Michkov is a pretty incredible #2 as well. Whoever finishes last will have a great shot at grabbing a franchise player. Just have to hope that Arizona is even worse than Philly next year.They're strong Bedard contenders next year
It’s not like EDM has won anything with him and Drai. And if NJ has McDavid they probably don’t have Hughes.That's true.
But you have to admit, though.... McDavid would've transformed our entire franchise.
Jack may yet do that himself (of course) but McDavid's impact would've been felt almost immediately.
Of course. Just responding to the whole "We suck at the wrong time" thing.It’s not like EDM has won anything with him and Drai. And if NJ has McDavid they probably don’t have Hughes.
I know it may sound crazy but I’d rather have our roster and prospect pool than the Oilers . They are constructed poorly IMO . Holland had a bit of room last off-season to fill out the roster better but he blew it ( Keith , Smith , etc) Devils have a very very good young core and cap room plus are not tied down by any real anchor contracts .It’s not like EDM has won anything with him and Drai.

The contracts seem ok excoet maybe for Hischier. That’s a lot to pay for a 3C.I know it may sound crazy but I’d rather have our roster and prospect pool than the Oilers .

So you wanna know who to choose out of Demko and Oettinger? Is that your question? I’d personally choose Demko, but if you’re just looking for wins I think Oettinger is safe.I have both Demko and Oettinger as starters, currently in my fantasy semi finals. I already have Lehner starting against us (yup).
One other starter spot. Who do I slot in there? I have been hemming and hawing back and forth all day. Please someone just tell me what to do.
